More quotes by Albert Einstein
The state exists for man, not man for the state. The same may be said of science. These are old phrases, coined by people who saw in human individuality the highest human value. I would hesitate to repeat them, were it not for the ever recurring danger that they may be forgotten, especially in these days of organization and stereotypes.
Albert Einstein
Education is what is left after you've forgotten everything you've learned.
Albert Einstein
God gave me the stubbornness of a mule and a fairly keen scent.
Albert Einstein
The only rational way of educating is to be an example. If one can't help it, a warning example.
Albert Einstein
The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking.
Albert Einstein
Earth is the insane asylum of the universe.
Albert Einstein
In the midst of every crisis, lies great opportunity.
Albert Einstein
In my experience, the best creative work is never done when one is unhappy.
Albert Einstein
Is it not better for a man to die for a cause in which he believes, such as peace, than to suffer for a cause in which he does not believe, such as war?
Albert Einstein
The world as we see it is only the world as we see it. Others may see it differently.
Albert Einstein
We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life. All that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.
Albert Einstein
I cannot conceive of a personal God who would directly influence the actions of individuals, or would directly sit in judgment on creatures of his own creation.
Albert Einstein
It is the duty of every citizen according to his best capacities to give validity to his convictions in political affairs.
Albert Einstein
If you want your children to be smart, tell them stories. If you want them to be really smart, tell them more stories. If you want your children to be brilliant, tell them even more stories.
Albert Einstein
The grand aim of all science is to cover the greatest number of empirical facts by logical deduction from the smallest number of hypotheses or axioms.
Albert Einstein
Outer changes always begin with an inner change of attitude.
Albert Einstein
If there is any religion that could respond to the needs of modern science, it would be Buddhism.
Albert Einstein
Although I cannot believe that the individual survives the death of his body, feeble souls harbor such thought through fear or ridiculous egotism.
Albert Einstein
The most beautiful experience in the world is the experience of the mysterious.
Albert Einstein
An autocratic system of coercion, in my opinion, soon degenerates. For force always attracts men of low morality, and I believe it to be an invariable rule that tyrants of genius are succeeded by scoundrels. For this reason I have always been passionately opposed to systems such as we see in Italy and Russia to-day.
Albert Einstein
